Starmer's Labour Leads in Polls but Risks Losing Momentum Without Clear Vision

• Half of Britons are dissatisfied with the Conservative government but struggle to articulate Labour's policies.
• Despite leading in the polls, 58% think Labour has said too little about their plans and half don't know what Starmer stands for.
• While Labour leads on issues like healthcare and cost of living, the Tories lead on defence and environment, showing there's more work to be done.
• Alastair Campbell warns Labour can't be complacent and must set out a clear vision to win over swing voters and gain seats not won even in 1997.
• To win, Starmer must communicate a compelling vision of how Labour would shape the country to overcome scrutiny and the tendency of voters to stick with the status quo.
